The DoorDash collaboration will help restaurant owners to rationalise their operations by incoprpoating delivery to their direct ordering channel with a flat-rate delivery fee. This will also boost the profitability of the restaurant owners, noted Wix.

With DoorDash Drive integration, WIX Restaurants will have increased flexibility and more control over delivery costs and logistics by eliminating the need to have an overhead expense of a building or hiring a delivery fleet, added Wix.
